SARAJEVO, May 31 (KUNA) -- Multi-National Forces in Bosnia and Herzegovina
said here Thursday they stormed some houses in Banja Luka, capital of the
entity of Bosnian Serbs, in pursuit of a fugitive Serbian war criminal.
In its manhunt for Stojan Zupljanin, the forces searched several houses and
seized computers and documents there, the Multi-National Forces said in a
release.
The search included the houses of Zupljanin's relatives and friends upon
information that they were aware of the fugitive Serbian war criminal's
hideout.
Zupljanin has been wanted by the international court of war crimes in The
Hague and Interpol for three years now for having committed crimes against
Bosnian civilians in west Bosnian areas in the summer of 1992.
Meanwhile, the Bosnian government Thursday asked the Interpol to arrest
another Serbian war criminal Radovan Stankovic, who escaped Foca Prison east
of Bosnia last week.
The international court of war crimes had earlier sentenced Stankovic to 20
years in prison, but it put him in a Bosnian jail to serve his term there.
